Brush Fire on Shadow Ridge

Sation 43 and 35 were dispatched to a smoke investigation on Shadw Ridge Drive. Approaching units found a lare smoke column and then located a large brush fire approaching a house. Units deployed lines to protect the exposures. do to limited manpower and the need for tankers, Station 39 Sun Valley, 23 Blue Ridge, 27 Jackson Township and 42 Tunkhannock Township were called out. This fire proved challenging due to the steep hills in the area. DCNR sent a helicopter which completed a few water drops.
No pictures on this one, I though I left my camera at home but it was in my pocket.
